Colette Dumont's Fleur de Glace, meaning ice flower, is unlike any flower we've seen. "Representing ice and cold" Colette's inspiration was her quilt's namesake. Featured at Houston in 2018 in the Alternative Techniques category, what's impressive about her quilt is what you don't notice upon first glance, not unlike how you can tell how much work goes into a garden. The quilt contains "approximately 30,000 beads and Swarovski crystals" that make it "shine like snow on a sunny winter day." Made with a multitude of techniques, including machine quilting, hand embellishment, and original digitized embroidery, its beauty will warm up the coldest who see it.
